Mplayer, no video, weird bar across the top of the screen

I'm having a problem with mplayer, I was able to get it to run on SUSE
9.1, but having problem on 9.2, whats the diff ?

When I run mplayer I get a hazy bar across the top of my screen, it
looks like it's trying to play a video, but it's too spread out and
looks like horizontal control went haywire...
